"I'll give you this opportunity, Hong Salamander is not married yet, if she is willing, it is also a good choice to come here to hold a wedding, at least I don't have to spend money. By the way, why did Carl take Mia with him, Mia likes sailing life? Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Hong Tao asked about Carl's situation.

"You've separated your husband and wife for more than ten years, and now of course you have to be more intimate. However, Carl didn't go to the sea with Mia, he took Mia back to her hometown. You always thought that Mia was a nun, but she didn't tell you the truth, she was not only a nun, but also the daughter of a nobleman in the Count of Tripoli, and she hid another layer of her identity just to avoid bad luck. Jiang Zhuyi's answer made Hong Tao stunned, there are still so many coincidences in the world? I also touched it myself. Karl is the emperor's cousin, and he himself randomly pulled a dancing girl for him as his wife, and the joke and prank were even more important, and the result was that the family was in the right place.

"I see, Senya also lied to me, she lied for Mia for more than ten years, and she still hasn't told me the truth!" Hong Tao, a chicken thief, can easily guess the truth of things.

Senya is not a fake nun, her every move is like a nun, and even her personal preferences have a strong religious overtone, this kind of thing is not something that can be done quickly. But she lied for Mia, and not only did she lie, but now Hong Tao was also suspicious of Carl. As a European nobleman, it is impossible for him to be unaware of the habits of nuns, and he should have realized early on that Mia was not a nun. But he didn't say it, probably he didn't even say it, he hid this secret in his heart and silently protected Mia. Even if Hong Tao asks him now, he won't admit it, and Hong Tao won't ask about this kind of thing, everyone knows it.

"It doesn't matter who lies, what matters is that Mia has returned to China and found her parents, guess what?" Jiang Zhuyi also thought so, it didn't matter whether Mia, Carl, and Senya lied or not, in that situation at that time, everyone would choose to lie to protect themselves.

"What else, her family is estimated to have no male heir, so she will become the legal heir. In addition, with an earl like Carl who wants money and soldiers, he can't admit it or not. Hong Tao can only speculate according to the path of later Korean dramas, God knows what will happen, and it shouldn't be a bad thing to see Jiang Zhuyi's expression.

"Not exactly, the inheritance is not in Mia, but in Philip, who can inherit his grandfather's title, and Mia's father is happy to pass on the territory to his grandson. The reason may be the same as you say, because Philip has a strong father. You don't know it, Karl is now a favorite in the eyes of all the countries around the Mediterranean, with the Venetians cooperating with him, the Saracens as allies, and the Crusaders on the Western Expedition as his most important supporters. There are already rumors that he may be the first heir to the imperial throne, and William has not denied this possibility, isn't it interesting? ”

Jiang Zhuyi has transformed from a strong woman in the business world to a strong woman in business and politics for two terms, and when it comes to the open and secret battles between these countries, she is simply full of energy. Hong Tao has a great confidence in believing that there must be a shadow of this woman behind the matter of Carl and the throne, maybe those rumors were spread by her. The purpose, it's hard to say, maybe it's for fun, or maybe it's for something else, women's minds can't guess.

"It's still better for him not to be the emperor, the emperor here is no better than the Great Song Dynasty, and he can't be guilty. Does Karl want to use the power of Mia's family to build an oil storage base in the port of Tripoli? "Hong Tao is not interested in these royal rumors, what he likes is Jiang Zhuyi, if she changes too much, it means that she is using practical actions to stay away from herself. Everyone is an adult, and there are many things that need not be said, just see how to do it. Hong Tao believes that Jiang Zhuyi will be measured, because she is not stupid.

"You know the port of Tripoli! When did you go? Now it's Jiang Zhuyi's turn to be surprised, she has always felt that she knows Hong Tao very well, and Hong Tao has never deliberately concealed his whereabouts when he came to the Mediterranean. However, Hong Tao actually knew that the port of Tripoli, which was far away on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean, and he did not have any unfamiliar feelings about the Count of Tripoli, as if he was talking about the Great Song Dynasty. Could it be that there really is a god in the world who knows everything?

"Hahahaha, stupid! I still want to show off with me, let me tell you, I am really a messenger of God, you may not have heard of its name, do you want to know what god it is? "Now that the initiative has been taken back by Hong Tao, how can the opportunity to strike while the iron is hot be lost, and it is the purpose to mess up Jiang Zhuyi's thinking.

"What's it called?" Jiang Zhuyi tried to convince herself that she didn't believe what Hong Tao said, but her reason told her that it was very possible!

"It's called the God of the Internet, and in my country, it's the God of Wisdom who knows everything and knows everything. I was its student, and a lot of these things in my head were given to me. In the future, please call me the Internet Messenger, you are the woman of the Divine Messenger, and I will slowly teach you more things that no one knows. Without further ado, let's go back to the bedroom first, and I have thought of a new posture that I learned from the great god of the Internet and will teach you now. Saying that, Hong Tao is interested again, others are always looking for various drugs to enhance male function, but Hong Tao found that he didn't need it, as long as the prank was successful and the deception succeeded, his function was extremely strong.

"Gods, gods still teach this!" Jiang Zhuyi was really blindsided by Hong Tao's words, it sounded so true, but the content was incredible.

"Nonsense, the immortals also have to reproduce, otherwise they would have died long ago!" Hong Tao smiled in his heart, and he had to pretend to be very serious on his face, trying to bring Jiang Zhuyi into the ditch. Women sometimes don't need to be smart, the more confused the better, like now.

The state of Tripoli should not be considered a state in the true sense of the word, because it was hastily established during the Crusades, a temporary product of the eastward expansion of medieval Europe, historically called a crusader state.

There were four of them, the Kingdom of Jerusalem, the Principality of Antioch, the Adex of Edessa, and the Count of Tripoli. Listening to the name, one can roughly conclude that these four countries were nothing more than a manifestation of the fiefdoms of the European aristocracy on the eastern shores of the Mediterranean. I don't have to say much about their history, it's so much that I could write a book on my own.

There is a movie called "The Kingdom of Heaven," which tells the story of the Kingdom of Jerusalem. Although it is a film made by European and American directors, and the values and worldview are more Western, the general process is still of reference value, and if you are interested in the Crusader countries, you can take a look.

The location of the Count of Tripoli is located in today's central Lebanon north of Beirut, plus the generation on the west coast of Syria, the area is not large, and it is like a small worm by the sea. The largest city is called Tripoli, which is a port. This Tripoli is not the Tripoli of Libya in later generations, one is on the coast of North Africa and the other is in Lebanon, but it is a seaport.

Carl chose this place as an oil transshipment port, and Hong Tao thought it was not bad. At present, three of the four Crusader states remain, the largest of which has been occupied by the Khorezmians, and if the history is followed, the Kingdom of Jerusalem should also be gone. But he changed history, and without the invasion of the Mongol Empire, the situation in this region has changed accordingly, and the other three are still quite stable.

Now that the descendants of these crusaders and the natives are slowly merging, religious conflict is no longer the main conflict, and there is no intention of a large-scale war. If Karl could establish an oil storage base here and be protected by the local aristocracy, oil from the Persian Gulf region could be transported to the port of Tripoli for storage, and then loaded onto Karl's ship and transported west through Fort Karl to the Gulf of Mexico along the Mediterranean. In the middle, there is also the Italian peninsula controlled by William as a fulcrum, forming a transverse line in the east, middle and west in the Mediterranean, and the security problem is relatively easy to guarantee.
